"It just seems extraordinarily stupid to use an open hotel and get State of the Union-type concentration of power in the United States, especially at a time of war against a country that's been the epicenter of terrorism since 1979."
"I can't think of a dumber, dumber place to have this than at the Washington Hilton. I know it's history, but history be damned when you're putting your secretary of defense, you're putting your FBI director, you're putting the secretary of treasury, putting the vice president, you're putting the president."
Joe Scarborough criticized the decision to host the White House Correspondents' dinner in an open hotel, calling it extraordinarily stupid. He highlighted the recent chaos at the event, where a suspect attempted to enter with weapons, targeting top officials. Scarborough emphasized the inadequacy of the venue, especially during a time of heightened security risks. He expressed disbelief at the concentration of power in such an unsecured location, stating that it has never made sense to him or his co-host, Mika Brzezinski.
